Henrikh Mkhitaryan

Says Arn of course, our fountain of all information.

Bobby Charlton plays no part in player recruitment.

I said that he helped DBF out. I didn't said that he played a part in player recruitment. He can help out in many other ways.

We had something called the booth room. Now United have copied it and our have collapsed.

Claptrap, he is a director of the club, nothing to do with the team.

Thanks for the link, now we all know what we are missing. Bring back Commoli.

You're right. Ayre's lack of Ukrainian mafia links is going to be a very big problem for us. We need a respected DoF who has better links to the mob, gangsters and other elements of organised crime or we're never going to be able to compete.

I'd say that if we don't soon appoint a mobster connected DoF we can say goodbye to Champions League for a long long time and that would be a big mistake.

A very, very big mistake

LVG will be used to those without a doubt.

Daily Mirror:

Henrikh Mkhitaryan's Liverpool transfer in doubt as it emerges he is not owned only by Shakhtar Donetsk

"There are no plans for a medical for the player" says Reds after news of a third party muddies the waters on planned £23m swoop

Liverpool's big-money bid to land rising star Henrikh Mkhitaryan has been derailed by troubling questions over his ownership.

On Thursday, Russian news agency Tass was reporting the Aremenia international was preparing to fly to Merseyside for a medical.

But official sources within the Anfield giants moved swiftly to dismiss the suggestion, and privately pointed towards growing issues raised during the negotiation process.

Liverpool thought they had secured an agreement with the attacking midfielder’s club Shakhtar Dontesk, for around £23million, but it transpires the Ukrainians only hold a PORTION of his rights.

Shakhtar share ownership with a business group that invested in the player - a situation common at clubs in eastern Europe and South America.

Striking a deal with at least three different parties has proved elusive for Kop manager Brendan Rodgers and his staff, despite their desire to bring one of the most exciting midfielders in Europe to the club as part of their summer reshuffle.

Mkhitaryan was preparing to fly to England for a medical earlier in the week, but those plans were put on hold by the confusion over negotiations.

A spokesman said on Thursday night: “There are no plans for a medical for the player.”

Liverpool WILL conduct a medical on Friday though - that of young Spanish star Luis Alberto, who will complete a move from Seville for an initial fee of around £5m.

You'd think it would be ok to name the spokesman if they're a spokesman.

[James P]

I don't know about player recruitment but he is famed for his parting.

His parting is such sweet sorrow.

[fah-q]

I think it's clear we need to get rid of our directors and bring in the Commission to work alongside the committee.

Either that or take a trip to the Pine Barrens.

Have Ayre be sack yet ?

[Fredo]

Wasn't it clear that Ayre had close links to the Liverpool mafia? Might come in handy in negotiations.

You're presuming that organised crime is organised.
